Yeah, I'm in full agreement with legitimate issues like when a locator
or contractor screws up, such as boring through a sewer line. If it was
my house, they're gonna pay for it.. or else.

Prior to bidding, all of the contractors I work with ride the whole
route looking at the types of soils etc. Sometimes they even pothole
to make sure what is under the surface. All underground utilities are
located during design time and then located again prior to
construction. This is not difficult to do right.

Wow...Just shared it to point out how difficult it can be lay fiber
when unexpected or unplanned obstacles pop up..... Imagine going to
erect a tower base five feet deep and a few inches or feet you hit a
water/gas/sewer/etc...If you or someone didn't check it out before it
could be a project stopper...I don't know if contractors or AT&T
hired a survey company to analyze conditions. I wonder what some of
the FTTH guys on this list do before they start building out .....From
experience, when we build out SCADA projects, we get drawings and
studies done way before we start by engineering firms. We attend
meetings where all these items are discussed. I imagine you guys do
your homework ...It just makes business sense.
